Deftones Taking The Year Off

Chino Moreno sat down with Rolling Stone and discussed that the band is going to take the rest of the year off and focus on writing new music for their next album:

“We just finished a tour, so we’re gonna take the rest of the year off,” he says. “We’re gonna start writing some music early next year. I just moved to Oregon and Stephen [Carpenter, guitar] is down in L.A. and Abe [Cunningham, drums] and Frank [Delgado, keyboards] are in Sacramento, and Sergio [Vega, bass] is in Europe.”

Chino also had this to add:

“The idea is to just get together. The last couple records, we just threw ourselves into a small room and started playing. We just work organically, which I think works better than me writing a song and saying, ‘Hey, guys, learn this.’ Hopefully in February [2015], we’ll spend a couple weeks together, and just kind of get together and write music.”

Well all of us here at The Big Red Radio can’t wait to hear new music from the guys and hopefully get them back in the valley to do a show sometime in the near future!
